Last Call
••••••
No more calls were necessary
They had broken you down
Threw you to the wolves
Leaving you hopeless and scared
The fear of being forever alone
Overwhelming guilt that you were the one that pushed them away
It is all your fault
It always is

The anger rushing to your head
Toying with your mind
In flashes of rage
Touching your tear stained cheek for the last time

The emotions swirling around
Dragging you down
Into a pit of despair
hatred
and sadness

You reached out hoping and
praying that there was a hand for you
But there never was
They never cared for you
So you promised your self no more calls
Not even pity they gave you

You were stumbling deeper in to the pit
Not a single sign of escape showing
After too many sleepless pain filled nights
You found a solution
An escape
A way to finally be at peace
Maybe even happy

Unable to feel emotions
You felt empty and broken
No more tears left to cry
When once there were so many
Not even the stickiness of the liquid on your fingers could cure you

Your vision clogged by the very emotions that dug the pit deeper
But a sudden
simple memory
Of something you once loved ever so dearly
Had pulled you back into reality

The mind going into panic
One last call
Maybe they will help
They will understand
With shaky hands
You attempted something you never thought possible

The phone dialed for seemingly ages
But no one came
No pity
No help
Just a useless last call
